I believe it was in 1904, at the World's Fair in St. Louis, MO that the first ice cream cone was tasted. That was the story that was on the show "Unwrapped" on the food network.
I think that nighworks4 is on to something as well. It's all part of the story. Been a while since I seen it, sorry I can't be of more help.
It was invented by accident when some guy selling icecream ran out of bowls and another guy rolled up a waffle and they put the icecream in it. I can't remember when though.
I believe it is hagan daaz. If not Dairy Queen.
The ice cream sundae originated in the late 19th century. Several men claimed to have created the first sundae, but there is no conclusive evidence to back up any of their stories. Some sources say that the sundae was invented to circumvent blue laws, which forbade serving sodas on Sunday.
Towns claiming to be the birthplace of the sundae include Buffalo, New York; Two Rivers, Wisconsin; Ithaca, New York; and Evanston, Illinois.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
